You belong to the only group of users I would recommend a Macintosh to. All the Microsoft products are available for the Macintosh. In addition, Adobe Photoshop is designed for the Macintosh Power-PC, especially if it has dual CPUs, and will run faster than on even a top of the line Intel (or AMD) unit.

It is also an alternative for those not wishing to use Microsoft products, but who also plan to get a Playstation or something like that for games.

For all other users, I feel the Macintosh is overpriced.
